Finally got a build (had to swap out -Os for -O2).
I traced the module loads and successful inits and found it; it's
pata_cmd64x ... it loads but never returns from init. I bet it's
trying to poke into ISA space which causes the HPMC.
Removing this one module from the system allows it to boot again.
I'd suggest just disabling in the parisc config for now. Using an ATA
based CD/DVD instead of a SCSI one is a very recent thing. I'll see if
I can get it working, but ATA controllers tend to be somewhat nasty and
x86 specific ...
